1 Peter 2:6-8
King James Version
6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

1 Peter 2:6-8
English Standard Version
6 For it stands in Scripture:
(A)“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
(B)and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”
7 So the honor is for you who (C)believe, but for those who (D)do not believe,
8 and
(F)“A stone of stumbling,
and a rock of offense.”
They stumble because they disobey the word, (G)as they were destined to do.
